What is a Fraxel Laser session like?
Fraxel laser treatment starts with a numbing cream to reduce discomfort, no local anesthesia is required. You may need to wait up to an hour, for the numbing cream to full take effect.
Your dermatologist will cover your eyes or provide eye protective gear, and then make multiple passes with the laser across each affected area. You will feel heat on your skin during treatment, as well as cold air produced by the machine. Some patients feel almost no pain, while others feel considerable discomfort. Your experience will depend on your own pain tolerance.
Fraxel treatments usually last between 15-45 minute. Most patients require between 1 to 5 treatments.
